Must-have Appliances for Your Outdoor Kitchen

The kitchen is arguably the most important room in your home, not to mention one of the most used. Anybody with any knowledge on buying and selling real estate will tell you, a good kitchen is attractive to potential buyers, and oftentimes means a better return on investment. But why have one kitchen, when you can have two? Outdoor kitchens are garnering popularity with homeowners and designers alike — when designed and executed well, and with the right accessories and appliances, an outdoor kitchen can add to your home’s value; (and as the weather gets warmer, the appeal of having one becomes clearer). We’ve rounded up a few appliances we think will up your outdoor-kitchen-game.

An Automatic Outdoor Ice Machine

Cool off this summer with an ice machine that can hold up to 35 pounds of ice. (Because all that grilling is bound to make you break a sweat.)
